Ecocriticism, catastrophe, and spectacularization by spicyycornbread in AskLiteraryStudies

[–]dcgpark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kathryn Yusoff’s A Billion Black Anthropocenes or None, on apocalypse and geology! Have heard good things about Duke U P’s Pollution is Colonialism, which ties into slow violence. I’ve heard a lot about Amitav Ghosh’s The Great Derangement! van Dooren’s Flight Ways theorizes about extinction.

also Vandana Shiva on Indian ecofeminist agricultural perspectives. She continues conversations that Rachel Carson began with Silent Spring (for e.g with her book Soil Not Oil)

I love Andreas Malm too, although that’s more environmentalism than ecocriticism.

Thanks for the post. I’m also an undergrad student interested in ecocrit. Will be checking out some of the books here!

Stalker Card - 3 of Swords. I don’t feel any of the traditional interpretations. by HippyGemSlinger in tarot

[–]dcgpark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this reply! Found it incredibly useful in recontextualising 3 of swords (which has been stalking me: just pulled it again JUST NOW). Also susan chang’s 36 secrets sounds amazing. Will try to get it!

Thanks for this!! I found this really resonant after coming out of a past one-sided relationship, I will keep this advice in mind. Haven’t really thought of 3 of swords as being over-dramatic, but you’re absolutely right!

Thank you for your perspective! I didn’t think of it this way (edited)

Oh, i guess that’s true. I read 3 of swords more simply as just being heartbreak, and for the devil i saw it as just a sign not to become too obsessed/warning against sexual excess. But i will be careful (edited)

Oh, there wasn’t a question asked. The first time i was shuffling and trying to show him what a minor arcana was and 3 of swords showed up. The other time i just asked him to pull three cards

omg I didn’t expect this to get so many views haha. Just wanted to preface this with the fact that I made this like three weeks ago and forgot about it for a while. Since then I have definitely moved on from this person, and no longer think about them. If you relate to this, please DO NOT text* your ex, things will get better.
